There is leaked Windows source code online… Is that also freeware for me to train an OS-building model on?
Sorry, you need high quality data for training.
The Linux source code is also online…
Seems like we’re all in agreement that all information should be free, I look forward to them open-sourcing every proprietary bit of code they have
I wish Microsoft had anything worth taking for free
Games?
The sort of mental gymnastics and cognitive dissonance that these subhuman c-suite employ to justify stealing everyone else’s data while demonizing sharing of their data, is just infuriating. If these scumbags were incarcerated for a day each for every time they showed this hypocrisy, they would all rot in the jails for their entire lifetime, perhaps more.
Lifetime jail + lifetime jail for X generations of offspring, depending on severity?
Or instead of jailing children at birth, maybe just confiscating X yachts, depending on severity.
No. Just leave their corpses in the jail for multiple lifetimes.
Isn’t that a bit too much like beating a dead horse?
Wasn’t that the point behind hanging, drawing and quartering?
They’ve been waiting a while to use this stock image.
Ooc: Hey you ! Take this laptop !
Using the term “freeware” is silly, but consider this:
Is the act of reading/watching something, equivalent to making a copy? Freedom of thought is an agreement much older than the 1990s, it has nothing to do with copyright, and all to do with secrecy. If something is made public, then it isn’t secret, so obviously anyone can read/watch it, be it with a wetware neural network, or an AI neural network. Making an exact copy is either plagiarism, or copyright infringement… but abstracting a style, then applying it to some other data, is “inspiration”.
Imagine a website with a licensing disclaimer like “you are allowed to read the content, but not to comprehend or express any thoughts based on it”. Nonsense, right?
